It pegged me as a Libertarian, which is pretty close. The red dot is
left-of-center, and it should be right-of-center, but for just 10
questions I guess it did pretty good.

I tend to agree more with another similar quiz that I took a few months
ago (I wish I remembered the link) that said I was sort of on the cusp
between Centrist and Libertarian.

I'll see if I can find it.

I found it: <http://www.okcupid.com/politics>

I'm a social moderate and an economic conservative. No big surprise there.

"Strong Democrat"
not surprised
I got 81% social liberal and 26% economic liberal.
Some of the questions were hard to answer like "most people don't know what's
best for them". I totally agree, most people don't know what's best for them
but I think that if you answer it like that you are implying that more
regulation is needed and that isn't something I would imply. People make
stupid decisions all the time based on poor information and specious
reasoning, but that's the cool thing about living here, you get to make
whatever decisions you want and you get to learn as much or as little as you
like to get by.


Interesting. I finally got the test to load and here are my results:

Social Liberal 65% permissive
Economic Liberal 35% permissive

Best described as a Democrat.

You exhibit a very well developed sense of right and wrong and believe in Economic fairness.

Fascinating.

I've always considered myself to be a conservative liberal. ;-)
I have strong views on both ends of the spectrum......

A good extreme would be that I strongly believe in gun rights,
but I'm also pro-choice. Where my own morals would NEVER allow me to have an abortion (unless there were extreme medical circumstances), I don't think that anyone has the right to take that choice away from anyone.

I also feel that ANYONE on welfare needs to do some sort of work to earn their keep. Sewing military uniforms at home, doing community service, something to earn their keep. Nobody deserves a totally free ride.
